-After a received frame is decoded *Measure phase response* generates
-an undistorted waveform whose Fourier transform is used as a
-frequency-dependent phase reference to compare with the phase of the
-received frame's Fourier coefficients.  Phase differences between the
-reference and the received waveform include contributions from the
-originating station's transmit filter, the propagation channel, and
-filters in the receiver. If the received frame originates from a
-station known to transmit signals having little phase distortion (say,
-a station known to use a properly adjusted

 Complete the following steps to generate a phase equalization curve:
 
 - Record a number of wav files that contain decodable signals from
 your chosen reference station. Best results will be obtained when the
-SNR of the reference signals is at least 9 dB.
+aignal-to-noise ratio of the reference signals is 10 dB or greater.
 
 - Enter the callsign of the reference station in the DX Call box.
 
-- Select *Measure phase response* from the *Tools* menu, and process
-the wav files. The mode character will change from `&` to `^` while
-_WSJT-X_ is measuring the phase response and it will change back to
-`&` after the measurement is completed. The program needs to average a
-number of high-SNR frames to accurately estimate the phase, so it may
-be necessary to process several wav files. The measurement can be
-aborted at any time by selecting *Measure phase response* again to

-numbers before equalization are "2 0  0.2" and after equalization 
-"1 5 -0.5". These numbers show improved decoding because 
-the decode was obtained using only a single
-frame after equalization whereas a 2-frame average was needed before equalization.
